Sustainability in Awnings Technology

Sustainability is now a key focus in home design as more Australian homeowners seek to lower their environmental impact. This shift has driven demand for eco-friendly solutions in outdoor products, including awnings. Somfy is leading the charge with smart, sustainable awning solutions, offering a combination of eco-friendly materials and cutting-edge technology.

Eco-Friendly Materials in Awnings

Today’s motorised awnings are designed with sustainability in mind. Many awning fabrics are made from recyclable or biodegradable materials that reduce waste and environmental impact. These materials are durable and can withstand harsh Australian weather while supporting a greener planet, making them the ideal choice for eco-conscious homes.

Energy-Efficient Motorised Awnings Solution

Our motorised awnings consume minimal energy while still delivering powerful performance. With advanced features like energy-saving standby modes, and lower energy consumption during operation, Somfy motors help to reduce your home's overall power consumption while improving functionality of your outdoor space.

Smart Controls for Sustainable Living

Somfy’s TaHoma switch offers seamless control of RTS motors and WT motors (with the Izymo motor receiver) to automate your awning system. It allows users to schedule, manage, and control shading via smartphone, saving energy and enhancing convenience. Further integration with sensors can further optimise efficiency, reducing reliance on artificial heating and cooling.

Somfy’s Act for Green Initiative

At Somfy, our commitment to sustainability goes beyond products. Through the Act for Green initiative, we incorporate sustainable practices across all operations—from the materials we use to the technologies we develop. This initiative reflects our goal to reduce the carbon footprint of our products and contribute to a more sustainable future.
